What it is
die release agent for aluminum
KelviRelease is a proven water based die release agent for aluminum HPDC and die casting. It is validated on the buyer's line by comparing hot-die wetting, release behavior, dilution window, hard-water stability, residue, pickup, and cost per shot against a documented baseline.
Where it is used
Aluminum die casting and HPDC
Best suited for teams solving aluminum die casting lubricant with measurable plant validation and a clear production baseline.
Typical result to measure
Trial KPIs

Evaluate against imported die release brands when cost per shot, water quality, or lead time matters.
Validation-ready dilution study
Run a controlled dilution ladder to compare release, soldering, smoke, and die cleaning intervals.
Outcomes with KelviRelease UltraCast
Performance gains you can measure
Hot-Die Wetting Evaluation
Designed for documented spray validation on hot aluminum HPDC dies where teams compare wetting pattern, film coverage, spray bounce, and release behavior against the current die lubricant baseline.
Anti-Soldering Validation Support
The release film is intended to help teams evaluate aluminum pickup, soldering tendency, drag marks, and ejection behavior under their actual alloy, die temperature, spray program, and cycle-time conditions.
200-300 Shot Release Benchmark
Controlled die-spray validation can test 200-300 shot release windows where die geometry, alloy, temperature, water quality, dilution, spray equipment, and part complexity allow. Validate release quality, pickup, residue, drag marks, and cleaning interval against the current agent.
Dilution and Cost-Per-Shot Study
Controlled line validation can evaluate high-dilution windows, including 1:100 to 1:150 where suitable. If cost is judged only by drum price, hidden loss stays in spray time, die cleaning, pickup, polishing, rejected castings, and working-fluid cost per shot.
Water-Quality Compatibility Check
Evaluate emulsion stability, nozzle deposits, spray consistency, and water hardness tolerance with your plant water before changing the production dilution standard.
Spray-System Compatibility Review
Assess filterability, tank stability, dosing behavior, nozzle performance, redispersion, and manual or automatic spray-system compatibility during the controlled plant test.
How KelviRelease UltraCast works for this use case
Document baseline, spray settings, release behavior, residue, and cost-per-shot before scaling
Record Baseline and Spray Setup
Document die temperature, alloy, part geometry, current release agent, dilution, spray time, water quality, nozzle condition, release behavior, residue, aluminum pickup, cleaning interval, and cost-per-shot before introducing KelviRelease.
Technical Note:Use the same inspection points before and after the test so release, residue, and consumption data remain comparable.
Run Documented Spray Validation
Introduce KelviRelease with defined dilution and spray parameters. Keep die temperature, spray program, cycle time, and water source stable while operators document wetting pattern, release behavior, and surface condition.
Technical Note:Change one process variable at a time, especially dilution, spray duration, nozzle pattern, and air pressure.
Inspect Release, Residue, and Die Cleanliness
Review part release, soldering or pickup tendency, drag marks, surface finish, residue, vent cleanliness, die buildup, smoke, and cleaning effort over multiple shifts.
Technical Note:Photograph die surfaces and casting condition at consistent intervals to avoid relying only on operator memory.
Compare Results and Set the Production Window
Compare release quality, die cleaning interval, concentrate consumption, water-quality behavior, downtime, and cost-per-shot against the baseline. Scale only after the first stable comparison period.
Technical Note:Kelvin technical support can help define the next dilution window, water-quality checks, and inspection schedule.
Hot-Die Wetting and Release Control
KelviRelease is designed for controlled evaluation of water-based die release behavior on hot aluminum HPDC tooling. The practical goal is to build a repeatable spray process that can be compared against the current release-agent baseline. Measure wetting, pickup, residue, cleaning effort, dilution, water quality, and cost-per-shot before making permanent process changes.
Best Practices
- Follow recommended application rates strictly
- Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight
- Consult technical team for customized guidance
- Monitor results and adjust as needed
Technical Overview
KelviRelease UltraCast is a proven water-based die release agent for aluminum HPDC spray validation. It is designed for foundries that want to test 200-300 shot release windows and 1:100 to 1:150 dilution ladders where process conditions allow, while comparing hot-die wetting, release behavior, aluminum pickup, residue, water-quality stability, cleaning effort, and cost-per-shot against documented baseline data before changing the production release-agent standard.
Use these metrics as the starting point for documented plant validation against your current process baseline.
